Maajid Lists Labour MPs Who Should Move To The Liberal Democrats

Speaking about Corbyn's Labour, Maajid Nawaz said these MPs should move to the Liberal Democrats because they're "not socialists".

Maajid Nawaz was speaking about a Labour party under Jeremy Corbyn on his show this afternoon when he made a bold statement about Labour and the Liberal Democrats.

He said: "I suspect that in the northern vote, in the Labour heartland of Sunderland, in Sandhill, that vote was a protest vote against Corbyn's Labour party. That's what I suspect.

"Lets not discount also the fact that Richmond Park was recently taken by the Lib Dems with a huge 20 per cent swing from the Conservatives to the Lib Dems.

"Then if you add to that, that in 2016 was the best ever year for the council by-elections for the Lib Dems, who gained 31 seats over a 12-month period.

"My advice for moderate Labour MPs, such as Tristram Hunt, such as Jamie Reed, is you have no future in Corbyn's Labour party. There is a future for Corbyn's Labour party for socialists, but you're not socialists.
